will read a non-fiction human interest feature, “One Man’s Goal” by Catherine
Clarke Fox. As students read, they will pay attention to challenges the character
faces, as well as, his response to those challenges. Additionally, students will be
identifying the main idea and supporting details of the story. Lastly, students will
learn about using homographs, and deepen their understanding of important
vocabulary words by using them in written responses.

3rd Grade Week 12
Science At-Home Learning
3rd Grade Week 12
Learning Summary TCI Unit 4 Essential Guiding Question: What Are the Life Cycles of Plants? Part 2 This week, 3rd grade students will learn new science concepts from their TCI Bring Science Alive! Unit 4: Life Cycles and Traits. Students will learn the science concepts of a plants life cycle and how living things grow. Students will also learn these science vocabulary words pattern, life cycle, and offspring.
Concept Review
What Are the Life Cycles of Plants? Organisms go through a pattern of changes called a life cycle. Different species of plants have life cycles with different patterns. Sunflowers have a life cycle with several stages: a seed, a seedling, an adult plant, and an adult plant with new seeds, then the common sunflower dies after it makes new seeds. An apple tree goes through a similar life cycle to a sunflower but an apple tree can live for many years and reproduce many times.
Vocabulary
• Define the underlined words above by writing or drawing the meaning of each word.
• Define each of the following terms (by drawing, writing, or talking): offspring, and seedling.
• Look at the pictures and read more about plant life cycles and reproduction in your Bring Science Alive Science Journal—
o What Are the Life Cycles of Plants? o Science Journal pages 90 & 92.
Independent Science Activity
• In your Science Journal on page 91 draw the life cycles of a sunflower.
• Look at the diagram of an apple tree’s life cycle in your Science Journal on page 93. In each box (page 93 of Science Journal), write in your own words how the apple tree is changing during that stage of its life cycle.
• Think about then write or draw your answer: Why do plants produce flowers, seeds, or fruits?
Science Connections &
Extensions
• Write a story about the life of a sunflower seed. Your story must:
o Identify and explain four typical stages in the life cycle of a sunflower. o Use sequence language, such as “first,” “next,” and “finally.” o Include the following terms: birth, growth, reproduction, death, pattern, and life
cycle.

3. Sunflowers Have a Life CycleWhen scientists observe how living
things grow, they look for patterns. A pattern is something, such as a series of changes, that repeats.
Plants go through a series of changes as they grow. The pattern of changes that a member of a species goes through during its lifetime is called a life cycle.
Common sunflower plants go through different stages in their life cycle. Each sunflower begins its life as a seed. If the seed has enough water and is warm enough, it sprouts into a seedling. Over time, the seedling can grow into an adult plant. Adult sunflower plants can make flowers. With enough sunshine and water, the flowers can make new seeds. Each sunflower seed is surround-ed by a tiny, dry fruit that protects the seed inside. Finally, after a common sun-flower makes new seeds, it dies. A sunflower’s life cycle is a pattern that its offspring repeat.
A common sunflower plant goes through its full life cycle in less than a year. At the end of the growing season, it dies and drops seeds that begin the life cycle again.

T E X T W I T H N O T E S
In each circle, draw a picture of a sunflower in the correct stage of its life cycle. You should draw a seed, a seedling, a fully grown plant with a flower, a plant that has developed new seeds, and a plant that has reached the end of its life span and died.
Seeds receive the right amount
of water and warmth.
Seeds are carried away from
the flower. The life cycle repeats.
Insects move pollen to the part of the flower that produces seeds.
Seedling grows into a plant
and produces flowers.
After producing seeds, the
sunflower dies.

4. Apple Trees Have a Life CycleWhen you last ate an apple, did you
see the seeds inside? Those tiny seeds can grow into big apple trees if the conditions are right.
Apple trees go through a life cycle similar to sunflowers'. An apple tree also starts as a seed. If the seed has enough water and sunshine, it will sprout into a seedling. Over many years, the seedling may grow into an adult plant. In spring, leaves and flowers grow on adult apple trees. Next, the flowers make seeds and apples, fruits that surround the new seeds. Unlike a sunflower, an apple tree’s fruit is large and juicy. The seeds inside the new apples can grow into new apple trees. The new apple trees will then go through the life cycle again. Unlike sunflowers, adult apple trees can survive to reproduce many times before they die.
An apple tree makes fruits with seeds, but not until it has grown for several years. The adult apple tree can survive for many years and make new fruit each year.

The Iceberg
Ages All Ages!
LENS Skill Sense of Self
Why? When I explore my identity and personal qualities, I can better
understand and express myself to others.
Materials Paper
Pencils/pens
Markers/coloring utensils
Summary In this activity, participants will explore their culture and identity to develop Sense of Self skills
by framing culture like an iceberg, some parts of ourselves are visible others and some are
under the surface. Participants will create their own “Cultural Iceberg” as they explore and
express the aspects of culture that help make them who they are.
Directions
1.) Establishing Understanding
First, define what “culture” means. According to the dictionary, culture is “the set of shared
attitudes, values, goals, and practices that characterizes an institution or organization.” As a
group, brainstorm as many different examples of culture you can think of.
Examples: foods, holidays, communication styles, music, games, stories, approaches to
problem-solving, concept of time, etc.
For a visual aid, look at the “Cultural Iceberg” at the end of the lesson. Notice that there are
“surface” culture aspects that are more outwardly visible, and “deep” culture examples that
are less visible to others because they describe our attitudes and how we think.
2.) Personal Iceberg
Each participant will now create their own personal iceberg with their
culture and aspects of their identity. Using a clean piece of paper,
have each person draw a unique iceberg shape on their paper. Wait
to draw the dividing line between “surface” and “deep” cultures. Try
to use the majority of the page so there is plenty of space inside the
iceberg.
Next, participants will fill in their iceberg with the aspects of culture
that are particular them as an individual. As a family, there may be
many similar representations on each person’s iceberg! Think of
Please contact [email protected] with any questions or to request permission to copy this lesson.
ways to represent culture beyond words – consider colors, images, and symbols that can
also represent aspects of identity (i.e. flags or religious symbols). Be sure to organize the
iceberg with “surface” examples toward the top and “deep” culture examples toward the
bottom.
Ideas for Personal Culture Exploration:
What special foods does your family make and/or eat?
What traditions do you have associated with certain holidays?
What activities does your family do together?
What are expectations around how you speak to older members of your family, such
as grandparents?
Once the iceberg is filled in, each participant should now think about where their dividing line
is – what is culture that we see on the surface, and what are things that are deep or less
obvious to others?
3.) Sharing
Each person then shares their iceberg with the rest of the group, selecting 3-4 specific things
to share. As a family, discuss what is similar across everyone’s icebergs (i.e. religious
symbols, holiday traditions, etc.) and what is different (i.e. hobbies, communications styles,
etc.)
4.) Reflect
Discuss or write your thoughts about the following reflection questions.
What was your attitude toward this exercise at the beginning? What was your attitude
at the end?
How did it feel to represent your culture on paper? How did it feel to share with
others?
What was it like connecting with others about each of your cultures?
Other ways to Play:
1. For further exploration, identify the 3-5 aspects of culture that are most important to each
person and rank them by order of importance. How is this order similar to or different from
your family members?
2. Consider doing this activity or sharing your creation virtually with friends or family members.
When working with family members from other generations, notice if where your values or
identities are similar or different
3. Consider creating your iceberg in a digital medium such as Publisher, Canva, etc.

LENS Project
Seven Sentence Story
Ages All Ages!
LENS Skill Negotiation
Why? When I listen to others’ ideas and build upon them with my own
ideas, we can create amazing things together.
Materials Seven Sentence Story Starters (see Directions)
Vocabulary Improvisation (or Improv): form of live theatre in which the plot,
characters and dialogue of a game, scene or story are made up
in the moment.
Summary In this activity, participants will use sentence starters and their own creativity to tell imaginative
stories together. With each participant taking turns contributing a sentence to the story,
everyone has the chance to practice Negotiation skills by listening to and exploring the ideas of
others in order to add to and complete the story.
Directions
1.) Establish Understanding
Discuss the concept of improvisation. Improvisation means saying the first thing that comes
to your mind, thinking on your feet, not preplanning what you’re going to say or do. When
improvising with others it’s important to “make offers” which means contributing ideas and
suggestions and to “say yes” or accept the ideas of others. This activity uses improvisation
skills to create stories. Make sure everyone playing knows what contributes to strong story
structure (i.e. characters, setting, rising action, and climax).
Consider brainstorming a list of characters, situations, and/or themes to be used as
suggestions in this activity.
2.) Sentence Starters
Share the sentence starters with everyone on a large
piece of paper, whiteboard, or on paper copies so
everyone can see them. These will be used for group
stories which everyone will create together.
Each person in the group will take turns using one
sentence to tell a part of a story. The next person will
continue the story that has been started using the
next sentence starter.
Seven Sentence Story Starters:
Once upon a time…
And every day…
Until one day…
And because of this…
And because of that…
Until finally…
And ever since then…
Please contact [email protected] with any questions or to request permission to copy this lesson.
Consider doing a practice round where one person tells a whole story with the
sentence starters, demonstrating how to start, develop, and conclude the story within
the seven sentences.
Example 1: Fantasy/Animals
Once upon a time there was a turtle named Sam.
And every day Sam would wander through the jungle looking for a friend.
Until one day he came upon a sloth named Mortimer.
And because of this Sam wondered if he might have finally met a friend.
And because of that Sam began talking with Mortimer and found out they had a
lot in common.
Until finally Sam and Mortimer agreed to be friends and look out for each other.
And ever since then Sam and Mortimer became inseparable, living out their
days under the best tree in the jungle.
Example 2: Realism
Once upon a time there was a girl named Jessie.
And everyday she sat on the couch, doing nothing to help around the house.
Until one day her father said she must help out by doing her chores.
And because of this Jessie complained.
And because of that he said no more screen time until her chores are done.
Until finally Jessie realized that helping out was the right thing to do.
And ever since then Jessie only needs two reminders to get busy on her chores.
3.) Tell Stories
Using this seven sentence starter format, tell as many
stories as time allows!
4.) Reflect
Discuss or write your thoughts about the following reflection
questions.
What was easy and/or difficult about this process?
Did everyone work together to tell a story that made
sense?
How did you make space for others in this activity?
How did you make a plan for what to say or do?
If there were conflicts, how did you work through them?
Other ways to Play:
1. Consider playing this game virtually with friends or family members.
2. Write out the stories and make illustrations as if it were a picture book.
3. For more writing practice, write a prequel (what happened before our story) or sequel (what
happens after) to this story using any format you wish. Also, consider writing a monologue
(one person’s perspective in a paragraph-like format) for a character of your choice.

LENS Project
Survival Ages All Ages!
LENS Skill Negotiation
Why? Sharing my ideas and being flexible and adaptable can lead to
successful negotiation.
Materials Scenario and list of items (included)
Scratch paper and writing utensil for notes
Summary In this activity, participants will be given a scenario and a list of items to prioritize for survival.
Using Negotiation skills, this activity asks players to collaborate by offering ideas, listening to
the ideas of others, and working together to reach a consensus on how to “survive” the mock
situation.
Directions
1.) Learn the Scenario
Have one volunteer read the survival scenario, or take turns so multiple readers can help.
Once everyone understands the scenario, read the items that were recovered.
2.) Survival!
The group must now put the items in order of importance
for surviving the scenario. Each participant should offer
ideas for how to prioritize or rank items for their usefulness
for survival and why. Have participants explain why they
have chosen certain items over others. Make sure
everyone has a chance to explain their thinking. In the end,
the group must reach a consensus (majority) conclusion.
This means not everyone will get their way, and this is OK
– it is an important part of negotiation!
3.) Compare
Using the Army’s ranking for the most useful items for survival (included at the end of this
lesson), compare your list and see how it may differ.
Please contact [email protected] with any questions or to request permission to copy this lesson.
4.) Reflect
Discuss or write your thoughts about the following reflection questions.
For those who do not often share their ideas, how successful do you feel you were at
working to share your ideas?
For those who tend to share easily, how successful were you at making space for
others to share?
What was easy and/or difficult about this process?
How did you make space for others in this activity?
If there were conflicts, how did you work through them?
What strategies did your group use to reach agreement?
SURVIVAL - A Simulation Game
SCENARIO
You and your companions have just survived the crash of a small plane. Both the pilot and co-
pilot were killed in the crash. It is mid-January, and you are in Northern Canada. The daily
temperature is 25 degrees below zero, and at night temperature drops to 40 degrees below
zero. There is snow on the ground, and the countryside is wooded with several creeks
crisscrossing the area. The nearest town is 20 miles away. You are all dressed in city clothes
appropriate for a business meeting. Your group of survivors managed to salvage the following
items:
A ball of steel wool
A small ax
A loaded .45-caliber pistol
Can of Crisco shortening
Newspapers (one per person)
Cigarette lighter (without fluid)
Extra shirt and pants for each survivor
20 x 20 ft. piece of heavy-duty canvas
A sectional air map made of plastic
One quart of 100-proof whiskey
A compass
Family-size chocolate bars (one per person)
Your task as a group is to list the above 12 items in order of importance for your survival. List
the uses for each. You MUST come to agreement as a group.
Other ways to Play:
1. Practice creative writing skills by creating new scenarios and lists of items for other
members of your household to rank.
2. For more writing practice, create a before and/or after story for the scenario – why was
everyone on the plane? How did they get rescued and what happened after they went
home? You could even create scenes with your group to act out these stories.
Please contact [email protected] with any questions or to request permission to copy this lesson.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Mid-January is the coldest time of year in Northern Canada. The first problem the survivors face
is the preservation of body heat and the protection against its loss. This problem can be solved
by building a fire, minimizing movement and exertion, using as much insulation as possible, and
constructing a shelter.
The participants have just crash-landed. Many individuals tend to overlook the enormous shock
reaction this has on the human body, and the deaths of the pilot and co-pilot increases the
shock. Decision-making under such circumstances is extremely difficult. Such a situation
requires a strong emphasis on the use of reasoning for making decisions and for reducing fear
and panic. Shock would be shown in the survivors by feelings of helplessness, loneliness,
hopelessness, and fear. These feelings have brought about more fatalities than perhaps any
other cause in survival situations. Certainly the state of shock means the movement of the
survivors should be at a minimum, and that an attempt to calm them should be made.
Before taking off, a pilot has to file a flight plan which contains vital information such as the
course, speed, estimated time of arrival, type of aircraft, and number of passengers. Search-
and-rescue operations begin shortly after the failure of a plane to appear at its destination at the
estimated time of arrival.
The 20 miles to the nearest town is a long walk under even ideal conditions, particularly if one is
not used to walking such distances. In this situation, the walk is even more difficult due to
shock, snow, dress, and water barriers. It would mean almost certain death from freezing and
exhaustion. At temperatures of minus 25 to minus 40 degrees, the loss of body heat through
exertion is a very serious matter.
Once the survivors have found ways to keep warm, their next task is to attract the attention of
search planes. Thus, all the items the group has salvaged must be assessed for their value in
signaling the group’s whereabouts.
OFFICIAL RANKINGS ON THE NEXT TWO PAGES!
DON’T READ AHEAD UNTIL YOU’RE READY!
Please contact [email protected] with any questions or to request permission to copy this lesson.
RANKINGS
The ranking of the survivors’ items was made by Mark Wanvig, a former instructor in survival training for
the Reconnaissance School of the 101st Division of the U.S. Army. Mr. Wanvig currently conducts
wilderness survival training programs in the Minneapolis, Minnesota area. This survival simulation game
is used in military training classrooms.
1. Cigarette lighter (without fluid)
The gravest danger facing the group is exposure to cold. The greatest need is for a source of
warmth and the second greatest need is for signaling devices. This makes building a fire the
first order of business. Without matches, something is needed to produce sparks, and even
without fluid, a cigarette lighter can do that.
2. Ball of steel wool
To make a fire, the survivors need a means of catching he sparks made by the cigarette lighter.
This is the best substance for catching a spark and supporting a flame, even if the steel wool is
a little wet.
3. Extra shirt and pants for each survivor
Besides adding warmth to the body, clothes can also be used for shelter, signaling, bedding,
bandages, string (when unraveled), and fuel for the fire.
4. Can of Crisco shortening
This has many uses. A mirror-like signaling device can be made from the lid. After shining the
lid with steel wool, it will reflect sunlight and generate 5 to 7 million candlepower. This is bright
enough to be seen beyond the horizon. While this could be limited somewhat by the trees, a
member of the group could climb a tree and use the mirrored lid to signal search planes. If they
had no other means of signaling than this, they would have a better than 80% chance of being
rescued within the first day. There are other uses for this item. It can be rubbed on exposed
skin for protection against the cold. When melted into an oil, the shortening is helpful as fuel.
When soaked into a piece of cloth, melted shortening will act like a candle. The empty can is
useful in melting snow for drinking water. It is much safer to drink warmed water than to eat
snow, since warm water will help retain body heat. Water is important because dehydration will
affect decision-making. The can is also useful as a cup.
5. 20 x 20 foot piece of canvas
The cold makes shelter necessary, and canvas would protect against wind and snow (canvas is
used in making tents). Spread on a frame made of trees, it could be used as a tent or a wind
screen. It might also be used as a ground cover to keep the survivors dry. Its shape, when
contrasted with the surrounding terrain, makes it a signaling device.
6. Small ax
Survivors need a constant supply of wood in order to maintain the fire. The ax could be used for
this as well as for clearing a sheltered campsite, cutting tree branches for ground insulation, and
constructing a frame for the canvas tent.
7. Family size chocolate bars (one per person)
Chocolate will provide some food energy. Since it contains mostly carbohydrates, it supplies the
energy without making digestive demands on the body.
Please contact [email protected] with any questions or to request permission to copy this lesson.
8. Newspapers (one per person)
These are useful in starting a fire. They can also be used as insulation under clothing when
rolled up and placed around a person’s arms and legs. A newspaper can also be used as a
verbal signaling device when rolled up in a megaphone-shape. It could also provide reading
material for recreation.
9. Loaded .45-caliber pistol
The pistol provides a sound-signaling device. (The international distress signal is 3 shots fired
in rapid succession). There have been numerous cases of survivors going undetected because
they were too weak to make a loud enough noise to attract attention. The butt of the pistol could
be used as a hammer, and the powder from the shells will assist in fire building. By placing a
small bit of cloth in a cartridge emptied of its bullet, one can start a fire by firing the gun at dry
wood on the ground. The pistol also has some serious disadvantages. Anger, frustration,
impatience, irritability, and lapses of rationality may increase as the group awaits rescue. The
availability of a lethal weapon is a danger to the group under these conditions. Although a pistol
could be used in hunting, it would take an expert marksman to kill an animal with it. Then the
animal would have to be transported to the crash site, which could prove difficult to impossible
depending on its size.
10. Quart of 100 proof whiskey
The only uses of whiskey are as an aid in fire building and as a fuel for a torch (made by soaking
a piece of clothing in the whiskey and attaching it to a tree branch). The empty bottle could be
used for storing water. The danger of whiskey is that someone might drink it, thinking it would
bring warmth. Alcohol takes on the temperature it is exposed to, and a drink of minus 30
degrees Fahrenheit whiskey would freeze a person’s esophagus and stomach. Alcohol also
dilates the blood vessels in the skin, resulting in chilled blood belong carried back to the heart,
resulting in a rapid loss of body heat. Thus, a drunk person is more likely to get hypothermia
than a sober person is.
11. Compass
Because a compass might encourage someone to try to walk to the nearest town, it is a
dangerous item. Its only redeeming feature is that it could be used as a reflector of sunlight
(due to its glass top).
12. Sectional air map made of plastic
This is also among the least desirable of the items because it will encourage individuals to try to
walk to the nearest town. It’s only useful feature is as a ground cover to keep someone dry.

LENS Project
Our Family Constellation
Ages All Ages!
LENS Skill Sense of Self and Negotiation
Why? Working together to create a three-dimensional
representation of our family unit helps us understand our
family better and develop deeper relationships to one another
Materials Get creative with the supplies you already have at home!
Star Stencils (print or trace our stencils, find your own
star shapes online, freehand it)
Cardstock, recycled folders, cereal boxes or other thin
cardboard
Glue or glue sticks (No glue? Make your own with flour and water!)
Scissors
Fishing line, string, thread, yarn, or ribbon
2 dowels, skewers (with points snipped off), chopsticks, popsicle sticks, or
sticks from the yard
Collage materials: magazines, postcards, stamps, greeting/holiday cards,
photos, coloring book pages, stickers, construction or scrapbook paper,
calendars
Hole punch (Optional)
Beads, buttons, other weighted material (Optional)
Summary
This LENS activity is designed to encourage the whole family to work together and collaborate.
You will all be able to explore how you relate to each other, reflect on your strengths, emotions
and how you communicate. Your family will collaborate to create a collage mobile highlighting
each member’s sense of self in a family “constellation”.
Warm-up
1.) Choose an Image
Look through your collage materials, have each family member
choose an image that they are drawn to.
This is your chance to warm-up your creative muscles.
You don’t have to be a visual artist to participate.
What image do you have a strong affinity or reaction
too? Why?
2.) Share your Image
Let everyone share their chosen image and explain why they chose it.
What caught your attention? What stood out to you in the picture?
How does the image make you feel?
Please contact [email protected] with any questions or to request permission to copy this lesson.
Directions
1.) Select a Star Shape
Each family member will choose their star shape. Trace them onto the
cardstock and cut out the stars. You can use the star shapes included or
free hand your own.
Keep consistent size in mind for each of your stars. This will help
with balance when you hang your stars. Make your stars as big or
small as your family would like, just make the decision together.
2.) Collage your Star
Each family member will create a collage on both sides of their star,
using pictures, images and colors that reflect their Sense of Self. Our
Sense of Self includes our personal qualities, values, beliefs, roles,
responsibilities, hobbies, goals, etc.
Use whatever collage materials your family has at home, i.e.
magazines, coloring book pages, postcards, calendars, construction or
scrapbook paper. As you select the items to include in your Sense of
Self collage, ask yourself:
What are my personal qualities, roles, hobbies, goals?
What images, colors, textures, and patterns can I choose to
reflect these things on my star?
Try to fill as much of your star as possible!
3.) Build your Mobile’s Frame
Using your string or thread lash your two dowels together to form an “X”.
Follow the included instructions for a clove hitch knot or work together to
find your own way to create your mobile’s frame.
4.) Hang your Stars
Next, punch a hole in each star or carefully cut a hole using your scissors.
Hang each star from your mobile’s frame using your fishing line or other string-
type material. As you work together and Negotiate with one another to hang
the stars, use the following questions to guide your choices:
Where does each star fall in your family’s “constellation”?
Who balances you out or who do you help balance out in the family?
Who are you close to? Who do you want to get closer to?
OPTIONAL: Add beads, buttons, or other weighted objects to help balance out
your family’s mobile. You can add them to the fishing line or string above your
star, hang them at the bottom, glue them on, or use another method your family
creates to balance your mobile.
Be sure to Negotiate with your family to determine how much time to take for each step
Are you someone that works quickly? How can you support those who need more time?
Are you someone who likes to take your time? Consider how your family might be feeling as they wait.
Please contact [email protected] with any questions or to request permission to copy this lesson.
5.) Reflect & Celebrate
Once your family has completed your constellation find where to display it! Be sure to also
take some time to reflect together on the following questions. (You could discuss as a family
or journal individual reflections.)
What is your favorite part of your own star?
What do you enjoy about the stars of your family members?
Were there any challenges when putting together your mobile? How did your family
work through them?
How did you reflect your Sense of Self during this activity?
What was a moment your family had to Negotiate to complete your constellation?
How successful was that process?
How did you develop stronger connections to one another during this activity?
Fun Additions!
Create stars for family pets
Create stars for family members who are social distancing. Call or use a virtual
platform to discuss what images they would include on their star. You could even ask
them to create their own star and send it to you for the family constellation.

Materials Get creative with the supplies you already have at home!
Leaf Stencils (print or trace our stencils, find your own
leaf shapes online, freehand it)
Cardstock (11x17 if possible), cereal boxes or other thin cardboard
Blank paper
Glue or glue sticks (No glue? Make your own with flour and water!)
Scissors
Coloring utensils (markers, crayons, colored pencils, sharpies, pens, pencils)
Tissue paper in different colors
Construction paper
Summary
This LENS activity is designed to encourage the whole family to work together and collaborate.
You will all be able to explore how you relate to each other, reflect on your strengths, emotions
and how you communicate. Your family will collaborate to create a family tree highlighting the
activities and traditions that make your family “flourish”.
Warm-up
1.) Individual Scribble
Each family member will choose a crayon and take a blank piece of paper. Set a timer for 30
seconds, during which time, everyone scribbles without stopping.
This is your chance to warm-up your creative muscles. You
don’t have to be a visual artist to participate.
Scribbling means you aren’t trying to draw anything on
purpose, just don’t lift your crayon.
OPTIONAL: Consider closing your eyes while scribbling or try
using your non-dominant hand.
2.) Joint Scribble
Now take a new piece of paper, just one for the whole family. If you have a larger piece of
paper you can use it now. During this round everyone will be scribbling on the same page.
Each family member can keep their crayon or choose a new color. Set a timer for another 30
seconds (or 45 seconds if you want more of a challenge).
Please contact [email protected] with any questions or to request permission to copy this lesson.
Remember, don’t lift your crayon and don’t try to draw anything on purpose.
Decide as a family if your lines can cross.
How does it feel to share the paper?
3.) Speed Sketch
Using the back of your individual scribble pages or a new blank page, get ready to sketch.
Set the timer for 3 minutes now, during which time each person will sketch a tree that
reflects your family in some way.
This is just a warm-up to get your first idea down on paper. Don’t overthink or plan
too much, it’s just a sketch.
Consider the type of tree, size, or shape. Consider any distinguishing features on
your tree that can reflect your family.
Once everyone is done, take a few minutes to share your trees.
Directions
1.) Create the Roots
At the base of the 11x17 cardstock (or equivalent material) list
the names of each family member, thinking of each person as
one of the roots of the tree. Utilize whatever writing utensil(s)
your family would like.
Where is each family member placed in the root
system? How do they connect?
What writing style will you use to write each name? Will everyone’s name be in the
same style or will you choose a different style for each person?
Include any relatives or pets who are considered important family members.
2.) Create the Trunk
Each family member should choose a color of tissue paper that reflect
their Sense of Self. Use each family member’s tissue paper to “paint or
sculpt” the trunk of the tree. You can cut and tear your tissue paper into
any shape or size or into multiple pieces.
Collaborate to create and shape the trunk of the
tree by combining everyone’s tissue paper.
You could layer the pieces of tissue paper
or combine them into a mosaic. Or
brainstorm your own method!
If you don’t have tissue paper at home,
that’s ok, get creative with what you have!
You could use construction paper, napkins
or paper towels. Consider using markers or
paint to add some color.
Be sure to negotiate with your family to determine how much time to take for each step
Are you someone that works quickly? How can you support those who need more time?
Are you someone who likes to take your time? Consider how your family might be feeling as they wait.
Please contact [email protected] with any questions or to request permission to copy this lesson.
3.) Create the Leaves
Create the leaves using the leaf templates included
(or free hand your own leaf shapes) and
construction paper. On each leaf, add drawings or
words that represent an activities your family does
together, places you’ve been, traditions, routines,
special memories, etc. Then work together to layer
your leaves onto the tree.
What makes your family flourish? What
activities, traditions, and places are special
to your family?
As your family is decorating the leaves, you can also create branches extending from
the trunk, using tissue paper, construction paper, paper bags, markers or any other
way your family creates together.
4.) Reflect & Celebrate
Once your family has completed your tree you’ll want to consider where to display it! Be sure
to also take some time to reflect together on the following questions. (You could discuss as
a family or journal individual reflections.)
What is your favorite part of your family’s tree?
Were they any challenges when putting together your tree? How did your family work
through them?
How did you reflect your Sense of Self during this activity?
What was a moment your family had to Negotiate to complete your tree? How
successful was that process?
How did you develop stronger connections to one another during this activity?
Fun Additions!
Consider connecting with extended family on a virtual platform for their input. They
can contribute ideas for the leaves, or add to the trunk and roots.
Does your family tree reach to other countries? How can your tree represent your
family’s cultural heritage?

Materiales Papel Lápices/bolígrafos Marcadores/utensilios para colorear
Resumen
En esta actividad, los(as) participantes explorarán su cultura e identidad para desarrollar habilidades del Sentido de Sí Mismos(as) mediante el enmarcar la cultura como un témpano, algunas partes de nosotros(as) son visibles a los(as) demás y otras están bajo la superficie. Los(as) participantes crearán su propio “Témpano Cultural” en la medida que exploran y expresan los aspectos de cultura que les ayudan a ser quienes son.
Instrucciones
1.) Establecer EntendimientoPrimero, definir lo que ‘cultura” significa. De acuerdo al diccionario, cultura es “el grupo de actitudes compartidas, valores, metas y prácticas que caracterizan una institución u organización.” Como grupo, hacer una lluvia de ideas con los diferentes ejemplos de cultura que puedan pensar. Ejemplos:comidas,díasfestivos,estilosdecomunicación,música,juegos,cuentos,formasderesolverproblemas,conceptodetiempo,etc.
Para una ayuda visual, vean el “Témpano Cultural” al final de la lección. Fíjense que hay aspectos culturales “superficiales,” que son externamente más visibles, y que hay ejemplos “profundos” de cultura, que son menos visibles para los(as) demás porque describen nuestras actitudes y cómo pensamos.
2.) Témpano PersonalCada participante ahora creará su propio témpano personal con su cultura y aspectos de su identidad.

LENS Project
The IcebergAges All Ages! LENSSkill Sense of Self Why? When I explore my identity and personal qualities, I can better
understand and express myself to others. Materials Paper
Pencils/pens Markers/coloring utensils
Summary In this activity, participants will explore their culture and identity to develop Sense of Self skills by framing culture like an iceberg, some parts of ourselves are visible others and some are under the surface. Participants will create their own “Cultural Iceberg” as they explore and express the aspects of culture that help make them who they are. Directions
1.) Establishing Understanding First, define what “culture” means. According to the dictionary, culture is “the set of shared attitudes, values, goals, and practices that characterizes an institution or organization.” As a group, brainstorm as many different examples of culture you can think of. Examples:foods,holidays,communicationstyles,music,games,stories,approachestoproblem-solving,conceptoftime,etc. For a visual aid, look at the “Cultural Iceberg” at the end of the lesson. Notice that there are “surface” culture aspects that are more outwardly visible, and “deep” culture examples that are less visible to others because they describe our attitudes and how we think.
2.) Personal Iceberg
Each participant will now create their own personal iceberg with their culture and aspects of their identity. Using a clean piece of paper, have each person draw a unique iceberg shape on their paper. Wait to draw the dividing line between “surface” and “deep” cultures. Try to use the majority of the page so there is plenty of space inside the iceberg. Next, participants will fill in their iceberg with the aspects of culture that are particular them as an individual. As a family, there may be many similar representations on each person’s iceberg! Think of
Por favor comuníquese con [email protected] para cualquier pregunta o pedir permiso para copiar esta lección.
Otras formas de Jugar: 1. Para una exploración mayor, identificar los 3 a 5 aspectos de la cultura que son más importantes para cada persona y ponerlos en una lista por orden de importancia. ¿Cómo es este orden similar o diferente al de los miembros de tu familia?
2. Considerar hacer esta actividad o compartir tu creación virtualmente con amigos(as) o miembros de tu familia. Al compartir con miembros de tu familia de otras generaciones, nota dónde tus valores o identidades son similares o diferentes.
3. Cosiderar crear tu Témpano en un medio digital como Publisher, Canva, etc.
representar la cultura más allá de las palabras -- considerar colores, imágenes y símbolos que también pueden representar aspectos de identidad (ej: banderas o símbolos religiosos). Asegurarse de organizar el témpano con los ejemplos de “superficial” en la parte de arriba y ejemplos de cultura “profunda” en la parte de abajo.
Ideas para la Exploración de la Cultura Personal:¿Qué comidas especiales hace y/o come tu familia?¿Qué tradiciones tienes tú asociadas con ciertos días de fiesta?¿Qué actividades hace tu familia en conjunto?¿Cuáles son las expectaciones sobre cómo tú debes hablarle a los(as) mayores en tu familia, tales como los(as) abuelos(as)?
Una vez completo el témpano, cada participante debe pensar dónde su línea divisoria está ubicada - ¿Cuál es la cultura que vemos en la superficie y cuáles son las cosas que están profundas o menos obvias a los(as) demás?
3.) Compartir Cada participante ahora compartirá su propio témpano con el resto del grupo, seleccionando 3 o 4 cosas específicas para compartir. Como familia, dialoguen sobre las cosas que son similares en los témpanos de todos(as) (ej: símbolos religiosos, tradiciones de días de fiesta, etc.) y cuáles son diferentes (ej: los pasatiempos, estilos de comunicación, etc.).
4.) Refexionar Dialoga o escribe tus pensamientos acerca de las siguientes preguntas de reflexión:
¿Cuál fue tu actitud hacia este ejercicio en un principio? ¿Cuál fue tu actitud al final?¿Qué sentiste al representar tu cultura en papel? ¿Cómo se sintió el compartirla con
los(as) demás?¿Cómo fue el conectar con otros(as) acerca de cada cultura?

¿Porqué? Cuando yo escucho las ideas de los(as) demás y las desarrollo con mis propias ideas, unidos(as) podemos crear cosas increíbles.
Materiales Comienzos de Cuentos de Siete Frases (ver Instrucciones)
Vocabulario Improvisación: forma de teatro en vivo, en el cual la trama, los personajes y dialogo de un juego, escena o cuento se inventan en el momento. Resumen
En esta actividad, los(as) participantes usarán inicios de frases y su propia creatividad para juntos(as) contar cuentos imaginativos. Cada participante tomará turnos diciendo una frase del cuento, todos(as) tienen la oportunidad de practicar la destreza de la Negociación escuchando y explorando las ideas de otros(as) para agregarle al cuento y completarlo.
Instrucciones
1.) Establecer EntendimientoDialogar sobre el concepto de la improvisación. Improvisación significa decir lo primero que te llega a la mente, pensar en el momento, sin pre-planificar lo que vas a decir o hacer. Cuando improvisas con otros(as), es importante el “hacer ofertas” que significa contribuir ideas y sugerencias y “decir Sí” o aceptar las ideas de los(as) otros(as). Esta actividad usa destrezas de improvisación para hacer cuentos. Asegúrate que todos(as) los que jueguen sepan qué contribuye a la estructura de un cuento fuerte (ej. personajes, ambientación, acción ascendente y clímax).
Consideren una lluvia de ideas para hacer una lista de personajes, situaciones y/o temas para usar como sugerencias en esta actividad.
2.) Frases IniciadorasComparte las frases iniciadoras con todos(as) en un pedazo grande de papel, cartulina o copias en papel de manera que todos(as) las puedan ver. Estas serán usadas para cuentos en grupo en las cuales todos(as) crearán juntos(as).
Cada persona en el grupo tomará turnos para contar una parte de un cuento. La siguiente persona continuará el cuento que se ha empezado usando la siguiente frase iniciadora.

¿Porqué? Compartir mis ideas, ser flexible y adaptable puede llevar a una negociación exitosa. Materiales Escenario y lista de elementos (incluidos) Papel para escribir y utensilio para escribir apuntes
Resumen
En esta actividad, a los(as) participantes se les dará un escenario y una lista de elementos a priorizar para la supervivencia. Usando habilidades de NEGOCIACIÓN, esta actividad les pide a los jugadores que colaboren ofreciendo ideas, escuchando las ideas de los demás y trabajando juntos para llegar a un acuerdo sobre cómo “sobrevivir” en la situación simulada.
Instrucciones
1.) Familiarizarse con el EscenarioHacer que un(a) voluntario(a) lea el escenario de supervivencia o que tomen turnos para que varios(as) lectores(as) puedan colaborar. Una vez que todos entiendan el escenario, leer la lista de los elementos que fueron recuperados.
2.) ¡Supervivencia!Ahora el grupo debe poner los elementos en orden de importancia para sobrevivir en el escenario. Cada participante debe ofrecer ideas sobre cómo priorizar o clasificar elementos por su utilidad para la supervivencia y por qué. Haz que los(as) participantes expliquen por qué han elegido ciertos artículos sobre otros. Asegúrense de que todos(as) tengan la oportunidad de explicar su pensamiento. Al final, el grupo debe llegar a una conclusión (mayoritaria) de acuerdo general. Esto significa que no todos(as) se saldrán con la suya, y esto está bien - ¡es una parte importante de la negociación!
3.) CompararUsando la clasificación del Ejército para los artículos más útiles para la supervivencia (incluída al final de esta lección), compara tu lista y ve cómo puede diferir.

LENSSkill Negotiation
Why? Sharing my ideas and being flexible and adaptable can lead to successful negotiation.
Materials Scenario and list of items (included)Scratch paper and writing utensil for notes
Summary
In this activity, participants will be given a scenario and a list of items to prioritize for survival. Using Negotiation skills, this activity asks players to collaborate by offering ideas, listening to the ideas of others, and working together to reach a consensus on how to “survive” the mock situation.
Directions
1.) Learn the ScenarioHave one volunteer read the survival scenario, or take turns so multiple readers can help. Once everyone understands the scenario, read the items that were recovered.
2.) Survival!The group must now put the items in order of importance for surviving the scenario. Each participant should offer ideas for how to prioritize or rank items for their usefulness for survival and why. Have participants explain why they have chosen certain items over others. Make sure everyone has a chance to explain their thinking. In the end, the group must reach a consensus (majority) conclusion. This means not everyone will get their way, and this is OK – it is an important part of negotiation!
3.) CompareUsing the Army’s ranking for the most useful items for survival (included at the end of this lesson), compare your list and see how it may differ.

4.) Refexionar Dialoga o escribe tus pensamientos acerca de las siguientes preguntas de reflexión:
Para aquellos(as) que a menudo no suelen compartir sus ideas, ¿qué tan exitoso(a) sientes que fuiste esforzandote para compartir tus ideas?
Para aquellos(as) que tienden a compartir fácilmente, ¿qué tan exitoso(a) fuiste haciendo espacio para que otros(as) compartieran?
¿Qué fue fácil y/o difícil en este proceso? ¿Cómo hiciste espacio para otros(as) en esta actividad? Si hubo conflictos, ¿cómo los resolviste? ¿Qué estrategias utilizó tu grupo para llegar a un acuerdo?

Otras formas de Jugar:1.) Practica las destrezas de la escritura creativa creando nuevos escenarios y listas de artículos para que otros(as) miembros de tu familia los clasifiquen.
2.) Para más práctica escribiendo, escribe una historia de un antes y un después para el escenario -- ¿por qué estaban todos(as) en el avión? ¿Cómo les rescataron y qué ocurrió después que se fueron a sus hogares? Pudieras también crear escenas con tu grupo para actuar estas historias.
SUPERVIVENCIA - Un Juego de Simulación
ESCENARIOTú y tus compañeros(as) acaban de sobrevivir al accidente de una avioneta. Tanto el piloto como el copiloto murieron en el accidente. Es a mediados de Enero y estás en el norte de Canadá. La temperatura durante el día es de 25 grados bajo cero y por la noche la temperatura baja a 40 grados bajo cero. Hay nieve en el suelo y el campo está lleno de árboles con varios arroyos que cruzan el área. La ciudad más cercana está a 20 millas de distancia. Todos(as) tienen puesta ropa de vestir apropiada para una reunión de negocios. Tu grupo de sobrevivientes logró rescatar los siguientes elementos:
Una bola de lana de aceroUna pequeña hachaUna pistola cargada de calibre .45
Lata de Manteca Crisco Periódicos (uno cada persona) Encendedor (sin líquido) Camisa y pantalones adicionales para cada sobreviviente 20 x 20 pies de Lona tipo Heavy Duty Un mapa aéreo en secciones, hecho de plástico. Un litro de whisky de Pueba 100 Grados Una brújula Barras de chocolate tamaño familiar (una cada persona)
Tu tarea, como grupo, es poner los 12 elementos de arriba, en una lista en orden de importancia para la supervivencia de todos(as). Hacer una lista de todos los usos de cada uno de ellos. Ustedes TIENEN que hacer acuerdos como grupo.
Por favor comuníquese con [email protected] para cualquier pregunta o pedir permiso para copiar esta lección.
INFORMACIÓN DE CONTEXTOA mediados de Enero es la época más fría del año en el norte de Canadá. El primer problema que enfrentan los(as) sobrevivientes es la preservación del calor corporal y la protección contra su pérdida. Este problema puede resolverse haciendo una fogata, minimizando el movimiento y el esfuerzo, utilizando la mayor cantidad de aislación y construyendo un refugio.
Los participantes acaban de estrellarse. Muchas personas tienden a pasar por alto la enorme reacción de choque que esto tiene sobre el cuerpo humano y, la muerte del piloto y copiloto, aumenta el choque. Tomar decisiones en tales circunstancias es extremadamente difícil. Tal situación requiere un fuerte énfasis en el uso del razonamiento para tomar decisiones, para reducir el miedo y el pánico. El shock lo mostrarían los sobrevivientes con sentimientos de impotencia, soledad, desesperanza y miedo. Estos sentimientos han provocado más muertes que quizás cualquier otra causa en situaciones de supervivencia. Ciertamente, el estado de shock significa que el movimiento de los sobrevivientes debe ser mínimo y que se debe intentar calmarlos.
Antes de despegar, un piloto debe presentar un plan de vuelo que contenga información vital como el rumbo, la velocidad, la hora estimada de llegada, el tipo de avión y el número de pasajeros(as). Las operaciones de búsqueda y rescate comienzan poco después de que un avión no aparece en su destino a la hora estimada de llegada.
Las 20 millas hasta el pueblo más cercano es una larga caminata incluso bajo condiciones ideales, particularmente si uno(a) no está acostumbrado(a) a caminar tales distancias. En esta situación, la caminata es aún más difícil debido a las barreras del shock, la nieve, la vestimenta y el agua. Significaría una muerte casi segura por congelación y agotamiento. A temperaturas de -25 a -40 grados, la pérdida de calor corporal por el esfuerzo es un asunto muy serio.
Una vez que los(as) sobrevivientes han encontrado formas de mantener su temperatura, su siguiente tarea es atraer la atención de los aviones de búsqueda. Por lo tanto, todos los artículos que el grupo ha rescatado deben evaluarse por su valor en la señalización del paradero del grupo.

1. Encendedor de cigarrillos (sin líquido) El peligro más grave que enfrenta el grupo es la exposición al frío. La mayor necesidad es una fuente de calor y la segunda mayor necesidad es de dispositivos de señalización. Esto hace que encender un fuego sea la primera orden del día. Sin fósforos, se necesita algo para producir chispas, e incluso sin líquido, un encendedor puede hacer eso.
2. Bola de lana de acero. Para hacer un fuego, los(as) sobrevivientes necesitan un medio de capturar las chispas hecha por el encededor de cigarrillos. Esta es la mejor sustancia para atrapar una chispa y mantener una llama, incluso si la lana de acero está un poco mojada.
3. Camisa y pantalones adicionales para cada sobreviviente. Además de agregar calor al cuerpo, la ropa también se puede usar para hacer un refugio, señalización, como ropa de cama, hacer vendas, cuerdas (cuando se raja) y como combustible para el fuego.
4. Lata de manteca Crisco Esto tiene muchos usos. Se puede hacer un dispositivo de señalización en forma de espejo con la tapa. Después de raspar la tapa con lana de acero, se reflejará la luz solar y generará de 5 a 7 millones de unidades candela. Esto es lo suficientemente brillante como para ser visto más allá del horizonte. Si bien esto podría estar limitado de alguna manera por los árboles, un(a) integrante del grupo podría subirse a un árbol y usar, la tapa pulida, para hacerle señas a los aviones de la búsqueda. Si no tuvieran otro medio de señalización que este, tendrían una probabilidad superior al 80% de ser rescatados dentro del primer día. Hay otros usos para este artículo. La manteca se puede frotar sobre la piel expuesta para protegerse del frío. Cuando se derrite, se conviert en un aceite que puede usarse como combustible. Cuando se empapa en un paño, la manteca derretida actuará como una vela. La lata vacía es útil para derretir la nieve para beber agua. Es mucho más seguro beber agua caliente que comer nieve, ya que el agua tibia ayudará a retener el calor corporal. El agua es importante porque la deshidratación afectará la toma de decisiones. La lata también es útil como una taza.
5. Lona de 20 x 20 pies El frío hace que sea necesario refugiarse y la lona protegería contra el viento y la nieve (la lona se usa para hacer carpas). Extendiéndose sobre un marco hecho de árboles, podría usarse como una tienda de campaña o cortavientos. También podría usarse como cobertura del suelo para mantener secos a los(as) sobrevivientes. Su forma, en contraste con el terreno circundante, la convierte en un dispositivo de señalización.
6. Hacha pequeña Los(as) sobrevivientes necesitan un suministro constante de madera para mantener el fuego encendido. El hacha podría usarse para esto, así como para limpiar el área para un campamento protegido, cortar ramas de árboles para aislar el suelo y construir un marco para la tienda de lona.
7. Barras de chocolate de tamaño familiar (una por persona) El chocolate proporcionará algo de energía alimentaria. Como contiene principalmente carbohidratos, suministra la energía sin hacerle demandas digestivas al cuerpo.
Por favor comuníquese con [email protected] para cualquier pregunta o pedir permiso para copiar esta lección.
8. Periódicos (uno por persona)Estos son útiles para iniciar un fuego. También se pueden usar como aislamiento debajo de la ropa cuando se enrollan y se colocan alrededor de los brazos y las piernas de la persona. Un periódico también se puede usar como un dispositivo de señalización verbal cuando se enrolla en forma de cono como un megáfono. También podría proporcionar material de lectura para la recreación.
9. Pistola cargada calibre .45 La pistola proporciona un dispositivo de señalización acústica. (La señal de socorro internacional es de 3 disparos en rápida sucesión). Ha habido numerosos casos de sobrevivientes que no fueron detectados porque eran demasiado débiles para hacer un ruido lo suficientemente fuerte como para llamar la atención. La culata de la pistola podría usarse como un martillo y el polvo de las balas ayudará a encender el fuego. Al colocar un pequeño trozo de tela en un cartucho vacío, sin bala, se puede encender un fuego disparando el arma contra madera seca en el suelo. La pistola también tiene algunas serias desventajas. La ira, la frustración, la impaciencia, la irritabilidad y las fallas de raciocinio, pueden aumentar, a medida que el grupo espera el rescate. La disponibilidad de un arma letal es un peligro para el grupo en estas condiciones. Aunque se podría usar una pistola para cazar, se necesitaría un tirador experto para matar un animal con ella. Luego, el animal tendría que ser transportado al lugar del accidente, lo que podría resultar de difícil a imposible, dependiendo de su tamaño.
10. Litro de Whisky de Prueba 100 Los únicos usos del whisky son como ayuda en hacer fuegos y como combustible para una antorcha (hecha empapando una pieza de ropa en el whisky y uniéndola a la rama de un árbol). La botella vacía podría usarse para almacenar agua. El peligro del whisky es que alguien pueda beberselo, pensando que le provocará calor. El alcohol adquiere la temperatura a la que está expuesto y una bebida de whisky a -30 grados Fahrenheit le congelaría el esófago y el estómago a una persona. El alcohol también dilata los vasos sanguíneos en la piel, lo que resulta en sangre fría que se transporta al corazón, lo que resulta en una rápida pérdida de calor corporal. Por lo tanto, una persona borracha tiene más probabilidades de contraer hipotermia que una persona sobria.
11. Brújula Debido a que una brújula puede alentar a alguien a tratar de caminar hacia la ciudad más cercana, es un elemento peligroso. Su única característica redentora es que podría usarse como reflector de la luz solar (debido a su parte superior de vidrio).
12. Un Mapa aéreo en secciones, hecho de plástico Este también es uno de los elementos menos deseables porque alentará a las personas a tratar de caminar a la ciudad más cercana. Su única característica útil es como cobertura del suelo para mantener a alguien seco.

3.) Build your Mobile’s FrameUsing your string or thread lash your two dowels together to form an “X”. Follow the included instructions for a clove hitch knot or work together to find your own way to create your mobile’s frame.
4.) Hang your StarsNext, punch a hole in each star or carefully cut a hole using your scissors. Hang each star from your mobile’s frame using your fishing line or other string-type material. As you work together and Negotiate with one another to hang the stars, use the following questions to guide your choices:
Where does each star fall in your family’s “constellation”? Who balances you out or who do you help balance out in the family? Who are you close to? Who do you want to get closer to?
OPTIONAL: Add beads, buttons, or other weighted objects to help balance outyour family’s mobile. You can add them to the fishing line or string above yourstar, hang them at the bottom, glue them on, or use another method your familycreates to balance your mobile.
Be sure to Negotiate with your family to determine how much time to take for each step Are you someone that works quickly? How can you support those who need more time? Are you someone who likes to take your time? Consider how your family might be feeling
as they wait.

Directions1.) Select a Star Shape
Each family member will choose their star shape. Trace them onto the cardstock and cut out the stars. You can use the star shapes included or free hand your own.
Keep consistent size in mind for each of your stars. This will help with balance when you hang your stars. Make your stars as big or small as your family would like, just make the decision together.
2.) Collage your StarEach family member will create a collage on both sides of their star, using pictures, images and colors that reflect their Sense of Self. Our Sense of Self includes our personal qualities, values, beliefs, roles,responsibilities, hobbies, goals, etc.
Use whatever collage materials your family has at home, i.e. magazines, coloring book pages, postcards, calendars, construction or scrapbook paper. As you select the items to include in your Sense of Self collage, ask yourself:
What are my personal qualities, roles, hobbies, goals? What images, colors, textures, and patterns can I choose to
reflect these things on my star?

Remember, don’t lift your crayon and don’t try to draw anything on purpose. Decide as a family if your lines can cross. How does it feel to share the paper?
3.) Speed Sketch Using the back of your individual scribble pages or a new blank page, get ready to sketch. Set the timer for 3 minutes now, during which time each person will sketch a tree that reflects your family in some way.
This is just a warm-up to get your first idea down on paper. Don’t overthink or plan too much, it’s just a sketch.
Consider the type of tree, size, or shape. Consider any distinguishing features on your tree that can reflect your family.
Once everyone is done, take a few minutes to share your trees. Directions 1.) Create the Roots
At the base of the 11x17 cardstock (or equivalent material) list the names of each family member, thinking of each person as one of the roots of the tree. Utilize whatever writing utensil(s) your family would like.
Where is each family member placed in the root system? How do they connect?
What writing style will you use to write each name? Will everyone’s name be in the same style or will you choose a different style for each person?
Include any relatives or pets who are considered important family members. 2.) Create the Trunk
Each family member should choose a color of tissue paper that reflect their Sense of Self. Use each family member’s tissue paper to “paint or sculpt” the trunk of the tree. You can cut and tear your tissue paper into any shape or size or into multiple pieces. Collaborate to create and shape the trunk of the tree by combining everyone’s tissue paper.
You could layer the pieces of tissue paper or combine them into a mosaic. Or brainstorm your own method!
If you don’t have tissue paper at home, that’s ok, get creative with what you have! You could use construction paper, napkins or paper towels. Consider using markers or paint to add some color.
Be sure to negotiate with your family to determine how much time to take for each step Are you someone that works quickly? How can you support those who need more time? Are you someone who likes to take your time? Consider how your family might be feeling
as they wait.
Asegúrate de negociar con tu familia cuanto tiempo dedicar a cada paso¿Eres alguien que trabaja rápidamente? ¿Cómo puedes apoyar a quienes necesitan más tiempo?¿Eres alguien a quien le gusta tomarse su tiempo? Considera cómo tu familia está sintiendo
mientras esperan que tu termines.
••
Recuerda no levantar la crayola del papel y no trates de dibujar algo a propósito. Como familia, decidan si sus líneas se pueden cruzar. ¿Cómo se siente tener que compartir el papel?
3.) Bosquejar Velozmente Utilizando la parte de atrás de tus páginas de dibujar individualmente o una hoja nueva en blanco, prepárate para bosquejar. Poner 3 minutos en el cronómetro, durante los cuales, cada persona bosquejará un árbol que refleja a tu familia de alguna manera.
Este es sólo un pre-calentamiento para poner tu primera idea en el papel. No lo pienses mucho ni lo planifiques demasiado, es sólo un bosquejo.Considera el tipo de árbol, su tamaño o la forma. Considera cualquier característica distintiva en tu árbol que pudiera reflejar a tu familia.Una vez todos(as) han terminado, tomar algunos minutos para compartir sus árboles.
Instrucciones1.) Dibuja las Raíces En la parte de abajo del cartón 11x17 (o material equivalente) haz una lista con los nombres de cada persona en la familia, pensando en cada uno(a) como una de las raíces del árbol. Usa cualquier instrumento(s) para escribir que le guste(n) a tu familia.
¿Dónde, en el sistema de raíces, está colocado cada integrante de la familia? ¿Cómo se conectan entre sí?¿Qué estilo de escritura utilizaras para escribir cada nombre? ¿Estarán todos los nombres escritos en el mismo estilo o elegirás un estilo diferente para cada persona?Incluye todos(as) los(as) parientes o mascotas considerados(as) miembros importantes de la familia.
2.) Dibuja el Tronco Cada miembro de la familia escogerá un color de papel de seda que refleja su Sentido de Sí Mismo(a). Usa el papel de seda de cada persona en la
familia para “pintar o esculpir” el tronco del árbol. Puedes cortar y razgar el papel de seda para hacer cualquier forma o en pedacitos múltiples. Colaborar para crear y darle forma al tronco del árbol combinando el papel de seda.
Puedes poner los pedazos de papel de seda en capas o combinarlos como un mosaico. ¡O hacer una lluvia de ideas y crear tu propio método!Si no tienes papel de seda en la casa, está bien, ¡sé creativo(a) con lo que tienes! Puedes usar papel de construcción para manualidades, servilletas o toallas de papel. Considera utilizar marcadores o pintura para agregar algo de color.

3.) Create the Leaves Create the leaves using the leaf templates included (or free hand your own leaf shapes) and construction paper. On each leaf, add drawings or words that represent an activities your family does together, places you’ve been, traditions, routines, special memories, etc. Then work together to layer your leaves onto the tree.
What makes your family flourish? What activities, traditions, and places are special to your family?
As your family is decorating the leaves, you can also create branches extending from the trunk, using tissue paper, construction paper, paper bags, markers or any other way your family creates together.
4.) Reflect & Celebrate Once your family has completed your tree you’ll want to consider where to display it! Be sure to also take some time to reflect together on the following questions. (Youcoulddiscussasafamilyorjournalindividualreflections.)
What is your favorite part of your family’s tree? Were they any challenges when putting together your tree? How did your family work
through them? How did you reflect your Sense of Self during this activity? What was a moment your family had to Negotiate to complete your tree? How
successful was that process? How did you develop stronger connections to one another during this activity?
Fun Additions! Consider connecting with extended family on a virtual platform for their input. They
can contribute ideas for the leaves, or add to the trunk and roots. Does your family tree reach to other countries? How can your tree represent your
family’s cultural heritage?
